Detect Market Manipulation

4 real-time algorithms identify spoofing patterns on the order book. Markers appear directly on your chart. No other mobile app offers this.

What is Spoofing?

Spoofing is a form of market manipulation where traders place large fake orders on the order book to deceive other participants about supply and demand. These orders are never intended to be filled — they appear briefly to create the illusion of strong buying or selling pressure, then are cancelled before execution.

This practice is illegal in regulated markets but remains prevalent in crypto. ChainVol PRO detects these patterns in real time using 4 specialized algorithms, giving you visibility into manipulation that most traders never see.

4 Detection Algorithms

Each algorithm targets a specific manipulation pattern. Detected events are refreshed every 30 seconds.

Vanishing Walls

PRO

Detects large orders that appear and then disappear before being filled — classic spoofing to fake supply or demand

Layering

PRO

Identifies multiple fake orders stacked at adjacent price levels that vanish together — coordinated deception

Shifting Walls

PRO

Spots walls that follow the price, always staying just ahead and never getting filled — a moving mirage

Absorption

PRO

Identifies real walls being gradually filled by aggressive orders — informational, not manipulation (shown in teal)

Anomaly-Heatmap Integration

When both Heatmap and Spoofing Detection are active, detected manipulation zones appear as "Anomaly Ghosts" — pulsing border overlays on the heatmap showing exactly where and when spoofing occurred in the order book.
